HomeMy WebLinkAboutTimes-Advocate, 1978-09-21, Page 11Dear Sir;
I wish to applaud Peter
Hannam, president of the
Ontario Federation of
Agriculture, for his
restraint. I am sure that Mr.
Hannam could have used
stronger terms than “A
bucket of bull feathers” in
answer to Ruth Jackson,
vice-president of the Con
sumers ' Association of
Canada, statement that
farmers are to blame for
high food prices.
However as Trudeau and
his economic advisers look
for new places to put the
blame for their
mismanagement of this
country’s economics, the
farmers become another
scape goat. Mrs. Jackson
conveniently, as do most of
her federal cohorts, ignore
the true culprits.
There were no statements
about food ripolfs when it
was announced that ••••••

BLOOD
DONOR
Dominion Store Ltd. earned
a profit of $5.8 million (68
cents a share) over a period
of 13 weeks ending June 17.
Nor was there anything
when Silverwoods Industries
Ltd. announced net proftis of
$602,162 (44.8 cents a share)
over a period of 24- weeks
ending June 18. This was an
increase of 157 percent a
share over the same period
last year.
Not only does the federal
government ignore the large
corporations, in their
economical restraint
programs, they even make it
easier for them to operate
without restraints. By
cutting back the subsidy to
consumer groups, which are
the public’s watch dogs on
price gouging, they are
selling the consumer out to
the corporations.
Coupling this action with
the cancellation of programs
such as Canfarm, which is
used mostly by small farm
operators to efficiently
maintain their farms, it isn’t
hard to see that Trudeau is
once again attempting to pull
the wool over the eyes of the
people of this country by
misdirection.
Yours sincerely
Stuart Craine
